This was beautiful. I felt deeply into my body & experienced authentic love for myself. Both of those things are hard for me to come by. ✨✨

At 8+ years into recovery, I didn’t realize how much I needed what was offered in this meditation, or really what I was able to practice offering to myself during it. Thanks you.

Wise and insightful practise. After experiencing a trigger, I felt able to take a step back and detach from the story.
